plein air is a pain in the keester



been doodling. not too much because i've been on the road or hiking waterfalls or wandering off trails down random embankments... and other nature-y things.
so who knew future supreme court justice oliver wendell holmes was such a foxy young man?
oh, doodled a zouave in there too. and did an awful watercolour of a mountain across from the mountain i was sitting on.

Every time I'd get into the swing of plein air, I'd either A) Have a gigantic bee decide to perch on my brush B) Have a biker dude come over and see what I was doing C) Look down at foot to see GIGANTIC FUZZY SPIDER crawling BETWEEN MY TOES or D) All of the above.

Plein air painting is a pain in the ass. Literally. I sat on a bee. :(

Civil War


I'm meandering south through Appalachia on a road trip. I've always been a total history buff and am currently in the area where most of the Civil War was fought. Today we went to Antietam, tomorrow we're checking out Manassas (Bull Run).
So yeah, angry union soldier. I'm doing some better sketches too, I swear. .. .. .

It'll be awhile

Hey guys. My computer needs some repairs, and as soon as I drop kick it into the shop, I'm leaving on a roadtrip. I have no clue when I'll be back, as we have no plans.

All I know is I'm finally going back to the Smoky mountains and Appalachia in general, the place where the two halves of my family came together.

I won't be posting for awhile. I'll still check around here and there because I have a smartphone. But hopefully when I come back, I'll have lotsa art and pictures of a place I love.

I hope summer's finding you all well, rested, and full of art. I know I'm full of it. haha.

Love y'all.
